    Toronto: Love it or hate it?

    For what it is worth, my experience since joining is the "big city folk" have a much harder time adapting to small town life than vice versa.  This is anecdotally supported by the innumerable posts here and on CAF related social media bitching and moaning about being posted to places like Cold...

    DND Accused of Using Pandemic to Withhold Info- Broad Topic of Clerks+Per File

    Here's the actual Privacy Act thing, it applies all the time, not just when someone submits an ATIP. My right of access kicks in as soon as I submit my ATIP application but the requirement to properly safeguard my personal information IAW the Privacy Act exists from the moment the Department...

    DND Accused of Using Pandemic to Withhold Info- Broad Topic of Clerks+Per File

    That's interesting. Anytime I have to reply to an ATI request it is very clearly specified that copies are to be sent, not originals. Guess Ottawa is so flush with cash they can afford to hire minions to do the copying for them.

    DND Accused of Using Pandemic to Withhold Info- Broad Topic of Clerks+Per File

    You do know you're just going to end up photocopying it anyway when they submit the Privacy Act request, right? So just cut out all the staff officers in the middle and do what's right instead of hoping the person isn't going to bother with the paperwork.  It's policies and attitudes like that...

    What order of dress were you in? If 3B, was it showing at the neck and/or sleeves? If so, just wear a v-neck that fits so it doesn't show.

    CDN/US Covid-related political discussion

    My point is, and has been before, is people are already giving all of that up, for free and voluntarily, to companies. The same companies who, 95% of the time, have a stipulation in the EULA that they are free to do whatever they want with the data you give them. Including selling it for...

    CDN/US Covid-related political discussion

    It always amuses me when people freak out about the idea of letting the big, bad, government track their movements, yet they are more than happy to give apps from Facebook, Google, MSN, Tinder, The Weather Network...whoever, access to their location data to have a "better user experience", all...

    Ottawa police officers charged with taking bribes from tow truck owners

    It is and they would be. Even if found not guilty they would still likely face a hearing under the Police Services Act and that could lead to them being fired as well.

    What have you won thus far in the Roll Up the Rim?

    Did anyone win anything this year? I know I didn't, but I wasn't going to get their app just to participate, although a couple of times the person scanned something at the cash, which they said was checking to see if I won. It's just seemed to fizzle out as soon as they announced they were...

    Trump Orders USN To Destroy Iranian Gunboats

    Let's not forget that Iran is also having their own internal COVID-19 related issues that they aren't fully disclosing to the world. This is also an opportune moment for them to be willing to have things escalate in a way that they can spin as them being the victims of the Great Satan in order...

    Gathering Reservists in Borden

    You must have read a bunch of different documents which originated from the CDS on down than I did then, because one of the things that everyone was ordered to do was to cease doing any kind of training which isn't operationally essential.  Last time I looked, "a lot of IBTS related training"...
